I got all the basic tools, and I am renting a spring compressor from autozone. I got some WD40 for stuck bolts. So is there anything I am forgetting?????

a torque wrench and a manual...those were the two best tools I had when I did my suspension. Have fun!

$25 at your local auto parts store. If you don't have a socket set, that might run you $10 for a decent set.

An electric impact wrench might not be bad. It was $30-40 at Kragen.

Also Liquid Wrench would work better than WD-40. Spray that on the night before.
